Blower Door & Duct Testing

These tests allow us to show you how much air your system is losing and how airtight your home really is. LiveGreen’s measurements can be compared to industry standards to give a true assessment of your home’s energy efficiency.

We can conduct these tests on new and existing homes. All tests follow North Carolina’s Building Codes.

Blower Door Testing

If air is leaking into or out of your home, blower door testing will show us where these leaks are. So why is this test important?

When air leakage occurs, you’ll consume more energy

Moisture condensation problems can occur if your home isn’t airtight

You’ll probably experience drafts of cold air coming through these leaks

Duct Testing

Air leakage in any of your ducts can drastically effect the temperature inside your house. You may have one room that has a significant difference in temperature from the other, which can have an irritating, troublesome effect. With duct testing, LiveGreen can locate which—if any—of your ducts are leaking air, so you can know how to remedy any comfort issues associated with the temperature inside your home.

In addition, leaky ducts can be costly. You may be conditioning unintended areas of your home, which causes your HVAC system to run harder to keep the right temperature in rooms you want conditioned. Especially during months of extreme cold or heat, air leaks in your ducts can be expensive.
